I have written about my love for Houston’s before. This time I ordered the branzino with the fries. As a reminder, for the fries, you need to have them hold the seasoning. You also need to order the ketchup for the fries without the seasoning.

One of my favorite lunch spots is @bettinapizzeria as they always have super delicious, seasonal salads on their menu. This one consisted of snap peas, pancetta and pecorino and was fantastic. It also happened to be naturally GF!
Tonight was one of those dinners that I wish you could all smell. I made the Red Curry Vegetable Rice from “The Gloriously Gluten-Free Cookbook” by @vanessaweisbrod - it was so flavorful and filling. We ate it with some @bfreefoods pita which was perfect for scooping every last morsel from the bowl.
Over the past few weeks we’ve made the drive to @sykitchen numerous times because the food and service are great and because we like their outdoor seating situation. Some of the menu items I have enjoyed are the local lettuce (GF as is), the prosciutto di Parma (with no bread), the salmon puttanesca (GF as is), the maccheroncini al brasato (with GF pasta), the wild mushroom pappardelle (with GF pasta) and the el viejo cocktail. They use @pasta_granoro for their GF pasta. You just have to request it to be cooked in a clean pot and with clean tools!
I love the chicken salad from @eatpanino so I will often get a small container of it to go without the bread that usually comes with it. Today I paired the chicken salad with @bfreefoods pita pockets I found @sprouts - along with a bag of @kettlebrand chips from Panino, this was a tasty way to start the week!
I found myself hungry for lunch a bit early today so I ordered a “build your own bowl” from @goletacoffeeco well before 11am. My customized bowl had quinoa, carnitas, black beans, shredded kale, shredded carrot, tomato, green onion and avocado. It came with their house-baked hearty artisan gluten-free bread. Does anyone else made weird mmm noises when they are eating something delicious? No? Just me? Let’s just say it was a very noisy meal.
We ended 2021 with NYE dinner @luckys_steakhouse and started 2022 with brunch there. For brunch, I had the huevos rancheros. To make the dish GF, I requested that the hash browns be made on a clean surface rather than the shared flattop they are usually made on. Additionally, I requested the corn tortillas and eggs to be cooked in a clean pan and with clean tools. There are typically tortilla chips placed in the guacamole that are made in a shared fryer, so omit those if you have celiac! I loved the salsa that came with this dish as it was super flavorful and had a little kick to it.
